What is Martin Luther known for?

Answered in Martin Luther's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

I am known for initiating the Protestant Reformation. Through my theological writings and public challenges, particularly the Ninety-five Theses, I sought to reform the practices and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church. My emphasis on salvation by faith alone and the supreme authority of Scripture aimed to return Christianity to its biblical foundations and liberate believers from what I saw as corrupt traditions.
